Iceland One Data Centre

Strategically located between the United States and Europe, this Icelandic campus is the most sustainable and environmentally conscious data centre in the world. This location allows for 365 days of free cooling and has been designed to operate without chillers. Iceland One is a dual-sourced, 100% renewably powered facility using only geothermal and hydroelectric energy sources. The infrastructure is designed with steel rather than concrete, making it 100% recyclable at its end of life.

Colocation is available at this facility, along with Datapipe’s comprehensive managed IT services.
